blackpowder shotgun

hunt41

i have a friend that showed me a shotgun that has a flip block on top of the breech. it reminds you of a rolling block rifle. but is a shotgun. it appears to be about a 10ga. he said some one told him that it was made about mid 1800's. it is suppose to use blackpowder brass shells. name on top of barrel is about wore off. it looks like the letters H--Z. was suggested might be belgium. ANY IDEAS???

Sounds like a ZULU....In very Good Condition its worth Maybe $125.00....and Not Safe to shoot.......

thanks for the info capt. kirk. you was right on the money. i took a piece of chaulk and gently rubbed across the barrel at the lettering and up popped ZULU. thanks again!!!
